06- Other#2022086
7,561 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the radar sensor for the pre-collision system (PCS) may not work properly. As a result, the pre-collision system can't detect when there is another vehicle in front of your vehicle. This means that the collision warnings and braking assist will not work to help avoid a crash. Safety Risk: A pre-collision system that does not work properly could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the radar sensor and re-initialize it, if necessary.
- Electrical#2021723
55,683 units affected
Issue: This recall is for certain block heater kits installed on certain vehicles or sold as accessories at Toyota or Lexus dealerships. On certain vehicles, the engine block heater cable may not have enough heat protection and could be damaged by high temperatures. If this happens, the cable could short circuit while plugged in, and cause the wiring to overheat or melt. Note: This recall only affects the following block heater/cord part numbers: C014003034 PK5A408J09 PU14000904 C014003151 PK5A408J13 PU14000905 C014000885 PK5A489J11 PU14000907 C014000888 PK5A489J22 PU14000909 C014000907 PK5A410H00 PU14000911 C014100904 PU14000900 PU14000913 C014100907 PU14000901 PU14003571 C014100911 PU14000902 PK5A489J14 PK5A408J05 PU14000903 Safety Risk: Engine block heater wiring that overheats or melts could create the risk of a fire. Corrective Actions: Toyota recommends that you should stop using the engine block heater immediately. Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to disable the engine block heater. For some vehicles, the corrective actions for this recall are under development. For others, a new engine block heater cannot be installed, and the owner will receive a refund of the purchase price of the engine block heater.
- Seats And Restraints#2019618
907 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the rear seat belts may be assembled incorrectly. As a result, the seat belts may not properly lock-up in certain types of crashes. Safety Risk: A seat belt that does not work properly could increase the risk of injury in a crash. Corrective Actions: Toyota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the rear seat belt assemblies. They will be replaced as necessary.
- Suspension#2018559
609 units affected
On certain vehicles, one or more of the rear axle bearing bolts may not have been properly tightened during assembly. This could cause the bolt(s) to become loose and eventually detach, which could damage the rear brakes or could cause the rear wheel(s) to detach. This may result in a reduction in brake performance and a loss of vehicle stability, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the rear axle hub bearing bolts. If a bolt is found to be loose or detached, the dealer will replace the rear axle hub bearing assembly and rear axle carrier sub-assembly.
- Brakes#2017559
5,294 units affected
Certain vehicles may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 135 - Light Vehicle Brake Systems. The electric parking brake (EPB) may not apply or release due to an incorrectly programmed skid control ECU. If this occurs while the vehicle is parked on a grade without being place into the park position and the EPB warnings are ignored, the vehicle may roll away which would increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update the programming of the skid control ECU.
- Electrical#2017363
39,189 units affected
On certain vehicles, the electrical power cords of some dealer installed block heaters may have been improperly manufactured, causing the wires to contact each other, resulting in a short circuit. A short circuit could lead to a fire which would increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: For vehicles where the subject block heater was approved for installation, the dealer will replace the block heater assembly with a new one of an improved design. For vehicles where the subject block heater was not approved for installation, dealers will remove the block heater assembly. In the interim, until the remedy can be performed, dealers will cut the plug end from the block heater cord to disable the block heater's operation.
